Ischemic cerebral infarcts represent a serious health problem with important social and economic repercussions in the western world. The presence of carotid stenosis is one of the main risk factors for the appearance of cerebral infarcts. Carotid stenosis represents a challenge for the medical community, both because of the enormous amount of scientific information available and because of the constant advances in diagnostic procedures and especially in revascularization techniques for treatment. General radiologists as well as those specializing in vascular pathology need to have ample knowledge of how to reach the diagnosis and of the different treatment options for this pathology if they are to play a successful role in multidisciplinary teams dealing with carotid stenosis. This update aims to present the basic information that we consider to be essential in a simple way to enable radiologists to meet this challenge. |
